Publisher's Synopsis

A Dominie Dismissed is a book written by Alexander S. Neill and published in 1917. The book explores the story of a Scottish schoolmaster, John Macmillan, who is dismissed from his teaching position due to his unconventional teaching methods. The story is set in a small Scottish village and depicts the struggles of Macmillan as he tries to reform the education system and challenge the traditional teaching methods of the time. The book is a commentary on the rigid and outdated educational practices prevalent in the early 20th century and advocates for a more liberal and progressive approach to education. A Dominie Dismissed is a thought-provoking and insightful read that highlights the importance of innovation and creativity in education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
